If Venom is so much of a loser back home, how did they end up on this highly important mission? What possible purpose would they serve? Riot is the leader, of course, and I’m assuming Carrion (yellow) and Blight (blue) would probably be like combat and study, so why is this dumb gay there?
And then it hit me.
The only constructs Venom ever produced during fights were defensive. When the Foundation goons bust up Eddie’s apartment, they make a shield to protect the people whose window they just crashed through from getting shot. The fight with Riot, they produce a big one to keep him from tearing their face off. After the rocket, they created a parachute so Eddie didn’t get hurt—at what could easily have been the cost of their own life. They told Anne not to get involved because it would be dangerous.
Venom was just a tank. The only reason they were there was to take damage and keep the others safe.
Fuck, man.
…and of COURSE the team protector would be the one to look at this planets sweaty inferior meatbags and go ‘but consider: what if I protect THIS, actually’
Is there rly any softer scene than when o’malley sees duchess and falls in love with her at first sight in the aristocats, complimenting her at every turn and climbing into a cherry blossom tree to make the flower petals snow gracefully down on her? How dreamy 🥀💕
This Is Love 😍😍
Not to mention when he found she had kids, he was thrown for a second, then proceeded to not only still help her, but dote on them too.
“Not all men” you’re right, Abraham DeLacey Giuseppe Casey Thomas O’Malley would never.
Catra is clearly being set up for some kind of redemption arc and the show goes out of it’s way to show you that her actions are because she was a scared, abused, manipulated child who only ever had one person to lean on before they left her alone. Kind of like Zuko, who also did some pretty horrible things before his redemption. Both of their arcs have amazing writing (so far) and they’re both amazing and complex characters. However the fanbases’ is reactions to these two characters are very different. Everyone loved Zuko even before his redemption (myself included) but a bunch of people are treating Catra like she’s irredeemable bitch. Obviously many people still love her and don’t feel this way, however, unlike Zuko, she’s divisive. Certain people who hate her do so passionately and violently, even if they’re a minority they’re very vocal. Their hatred of her goes beyond the reasonable amount of hate anyone should have for a cartoon character, especially one that well-written. Basically… She’s being given the “Vriscourse” treatment. It’s not fueled because they care about “criticizing her actions” (The show explicitly says they’re bad as is) but because they’re looking for any excuse to just violently hate a women, or because they believe women who aren’t perfect should be violently hated. Even if they don’t realize it and this hate is internalized misogyny that they’ve yet to unlearn. Just look at how no one every critiques Zutara, a het ship, since Zuko was reformed. But as soon people wanna ship a reformed Catra with Adora (Which will happen at some point as things are going!) it’s a huge huge issue. It’s transparent, we all know why the standards are different, even if we don’t realize it.
